    I love Bacio Di Latte. I say this as someone who ate gelato through my way in Italy from Venice to Rome. Bacio Di Latte is MY FAVORITE gelato shop. This location of Bacio Di Latte is in the Westcliff Newport Beach area, in the same plaza as Pressed Juicery and The Chicken Shop. This is a really prime location with plenty of parking in the area. They have a few seats inside and plenty of seats outside shared with the plaza. I took my boyfriend here so he can enjoy some premium gelato with me. We shared a Regular Cup ($8.95) which allows you up to 3 flavors. Staff was very kind with offering samples. We ended up choosing the mint chocolate chip, liana's shortcake, and hazelnut. Every flavor was well developed and the consistency was smooth. It is exactly as gelato should be. I could have eaten it all by myself but I must really adore my boyfriend to share with him. A few of my other favorite flavors here is the namesake bacio di latte, tiramisu, salted caramel, coffee, and pistachio. It all depends on which flavors I'm in the mood for. Admittedly on the pricey side but you pay for quality.

    Tiramisu and pistachio gelato

    Every time I think about gelato, I think about an acquaintance I had that made her summer Italy trip her entire personality. She would never stop talking about how gelato is so much better than ice cream and how I just "wouldn't get it." Do I still talk to her? Absolutely not. But do I get it now? Without a doubt. As much I hate pitting sweet treats against one another, gelato is truly superior to other variations of milk, cream, and ice. Bacio Di Latte in particular was super delicious and made my sweet evening that much sweeter! I loved that we were able to sample different flavors so I can get a better idea of which one(s) I wanted to commit to. The flavors I ended up choosing were tiramisu and pistachio, which are generally my go-to flavors as a first timer. I'd come back here if I was nearby, even if the parking situation for Irvine Spectrum is less than savory.

    I'd pick this location for what might be the quietest of the three local ones around Orange County. The shop is clean and bright, and there's actually some places to sit compared to the Fashion Island location. Presentation is lovely and the gelato is top notch. I've always appreciated that the shop offers samples, which is important in my unofficial book of ice cream. (Because how can you have all these cool flavors but not offer samples to the people. This is what I appreciate about Bacio.) Service is rough depending on when you go. Great customer service but terribly understaffed. I felt awful for the associate working the day I went. The person was just by himself handling everything. This is clearly something management needs to do better with staffing. The hour I was sitting there, it was nonstop flow of people coming in and only 1 person handling everything. No other associate was in sight. The associate really did the best he could and earned every friggin' penny and tip that shift. I hope Bacio does better there for its associate and the customers. As for the gelato, as I mentioned, great varieties and solid presentation.

    I love Bacio Di Latte! I was so excited to hear about the 50% off affogato special this month. I got two scoops of chocolate & hazelnut with 2 shots. Definitely want to go back before the special ends. I wish I got the name of the guy behind the counter but he was very helpful and friendly!

    Bacio Di Latte opened in this location not too long ago and it's really really really good.The gelato is super creamy and not overly sweet. Pistachio and Bacio di latte flavors we tried and were both excellent. You can tell the ingredients are high quality. The shop is clean and modern, staff was friendly, and portions were solid. A little pricey, but worth it. Great new dessert spot and will definitely be a go-to option.

    I got to try several flavors. My favorite was their seasonal flavor, Maple Crunch. They were kind to let me try more than 3 flavors. I thought the i e cream was nice and creamy. I loved how clean store looked and how comfortable seating was as well. Its a very cute look.

    Solid spot to get gelato. I was impressed by all the flavors and I got my usual affogato. I like to get it with the pistachio flavored gelato. The staff is friendly and will allow you to try flavors. This one is less crowded than the Newport one. I would recommend it.

    What a cute coffee and gelato place ! It is clean, well lit and decorated with adorable coffeewares. You can sample gelatos if you need to compare what you like .

    I visited right at opening time and was immediately charmed by the vintage vibe of the shop. They have a lovely outdoor seating area, which is perfect for enjoying the breeze. The gelato here is exceptional--the texture is perfectly creamy and chewy with just the right amount of sweetness. Each flavor tastes incredibly authentic. I tried the Yogurt, Coffee, and Pistachio, and they were all a solid 5/5. I'll definitely be back to explore more of their menu. Nice and Friendly staff.

You could tell the cashier was ready to go home, but I found her endearing. She was very helpful and provided descriptions of some of the cookies they had displayed. My friend got the cowboy cookie and I got the M&M cookie. We both opted out of enjoying our cookies with milk, which I guess defeats the purpose.. but the cookies were warm and tasty.

The Order: * My Go-To: I highly recommend the chocolate chip cookie with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream on top. * Variety: They have every flavor of milk, ice cream, and cookies you could want. Timing & Atmosphere: * Avoid Weekends: I would not recommend coming here on a weekend. The store is tiny, and because it's right next to all the bars, the area gets crowded with a lot of drunk people. If that isn't your scene, stick to a weekday visit. * Rewards: It is quite expensive, but it's a nice treat. Plus, you can sign up with your phone number to get discounts for future visits. The Parking Situation: * Virtually Non-Existent: There is no parking lot, so you are stuck looking for small spots along the side of the road. * Accessibility: There is no designated handicap parking, so keep that in mind if you aren't prepared to walk a bit from a side street. Final Verdict: It's a perfect weekday spot for a warm dessert, just be prepared for the peninsula parking struggle!

It's located at the Newport/Balboa pier by the surfer statue, the interior is tight but manageable as the drinks come out pretty quickly. There's plenty of tables set outside to be shared amongst the other small food spots around. I visited on a Saturday morning after taking a walk up and down the pier with my pup. The line was a few folks out the door but I was at the counter ordering within a few minutes. The menu is straight and to the point, prices are what you'd expect from any coffee shop in the OC (I would think the baseline is $6-$8 per drink) They also offer smoothies and açaí bowls as well. I see that they had an açaí smoothie on the menu and was intrigued! Once I received my smoothie, I could tell just by visuals it was a premade frozen açaí blend of some sort that was re-blended. It tasted pretty close to the single serve frozen açaí pouches you can buy at Costco. And speaking of, the consistency was exactly like your Costco berry smoothie (and dare I say.. even the taste? lol) except of course the Costco smoothie is only $3. It wasn't great. It wasn't bad. It wasn't cheap ($8) but, it was a cold drink on a hot day that was artificially sweet and went down easy. And also, served by the nicest staff!! Next time I'll try their matcha (which is what I was going to order but then I had to get spontaneous lol)

I'm Filipino and was tickled to hear about the flavors...Ube Pandesal Toffee, Banana Turon Crunch & Mango Sticky Rice. We tried the Ube Pandesal Toffee and I'm quite amazed how they were able to capture that unique flavor. I grew up with making an "ice cream" sandwich by putting ice cream in a pandesal and tasting this just unleashed a core memory of being young and making an ice cream sandwich that way. We will definitely be back to try the other flavors! When we arrived there was a few people in line and when the line grew a bit, I think it was a manager that stopped what he was doing to jump in and help with customers which I thought was very considerate of him to do. Lastly, the location was charming and tucked away in the corner of the plaza. It had a few tables outside and in the adjacent Pop Pie shop to sit for a few minutes to enjoy the ice cream! It's nice to support a small businesses that cater to the community! Good luck to the Stella Jean family...wishing you success! I'll be back for my Turon & sticky rice!

The shop has been a Balboa Island staple since 1960, when it was opened by Joe "Dad" Anderson. According to local lore, a group known as the "Dew Dads" began a tradition in the 1960s of gathering early for coffee and donuts, and that tradition continues today. Some regulars even have their own hooks on the wall for their coffee mugs. The hippo sugar cookies change with the holidays. I visited around Easter, and they had Easter colors. We got a glazed donut for my son, and he loved it. I got a hippo cookie to share; it was a standard sugar cookie, but the little, colorful hippo was adorable. It's a great treat for kids of all ages. We also got a frozen banana covered in chocolate with sprinkles. My son didn't care for it, but I really enjoyed it. I appreciate that Dad's Donuts opens early, allowing visitors to sample their goodies. It felt like a classic mom-and-pop shop, and I could tell many are regulars, as the staff was on a first-name basis with some patrons. Dad's Donuts is definitely a gem on Balboa Island, and their delicious treats and charming, family-friendly atmosphere make it a must-visit.
